General election – Held throughout the country for the positions of president and vice president of the Republic, and, in each state, for governor and vice-governor, senator, federal and state deputy (in the Federal District, for district deputy).
-
Municipal election – Held in each municipality for the positions of mayor, deputy mayor and councilor.

Supplementary election – Carried out only in sections whose voters have been prevented from voting (such as in the event of a flood, on polling day), or whose votes have been annulled (by court decision). Thus, affected voters have a new opportunity to exercise their right to vote.
